Name | Carol A |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | I was on a beach early evening with an unobstructed view which extended miles across the sea and the coastline of SE England. What I saw was like a bright firework which appeared almost from nowhere at such a speed that amost as soon as I realized what I was seeing, it disappeared. The fireball didn't disappear from my view as I could see for miles, it either ceased to exist or went into the sea. |
